"Jacobson's book impressively lives up to its stark and splendid
title, which is borrowed from Polish-Jewish revolutionary Rosa
Luxemburg's capsule description of the bonds uniting people into
nations. For the immigrants whom Jacobson considers, nationalist
sorrows seemed especially tragic, as they were felt and resisted in
exile from the nations whose causes were being championed. "Special
Sorrows "carefully delineates the centrality of Jewish, Polish and
Irish supporters in the United States to national liberation
movements abroad and, as expertly, details how such movements
shaped immigrant life in the United States."--David Roediger, from
the Foreword
